Get some decent windscreen wipers you pikey. Honestly, welcome to the
21st century.
It seems a reasonable question. There are some Spray Suppression
requirements for lorries:

They make up all sorts of stupid rules for cars but neglect the obvious. You only need to drive once on a motorway in the pouring rain to see the mess made by cars without flaps.
You neglect the obvious laws such as speeding/tailgating/drunk-driving
and you're banging on about stupid rules for mudflaps???
Hint: if you're getting sprayed by the car in front, you're too
****ing close (see under 'tailgating' above).
Well, yes.
